All metals form salts.
Acids and bases are known for forming salts through a chemical reaction called neutralization. Acids release hydrogen ions (H+) in water, while bases release hydroxide ions (OH-). When an acid reacts with a base, the resulting product is a salt and water.
The number of compounds of noble gases is very low; salts derived from xenon are known.
All salts contain as a cation a metal (or ammonium).
The elements in group 17 are known by the name halogens. They are non-metal elements and are at times referred to as salts.
No, salts are not elements. Salts are ionic compounds composed of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions) that are held together by electrostatic forces. These ions can be composed of different elements from the periodic table.
The highly reactive elements in group 7A, also known as group 17 or the halogens, are fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine. These elements are known for forming salts by gaining an electron to achieve a full outer electron shell.
Acids and bases are known for forming salts through a chemical reaction called neutralization. Acids release hydrogen ions (H+) in water, while bases release hydroxide ions (OH-). When an acid reacts with a base, the resulting product is a salt and water.
The number of compounds of noble gases is very low; salts derived from xenon are known.
Halogens are not salts but they are chemical elements; halogens can form salts reacting with metals.
The majority of elements, and especially metals form salts.
Metals form salts.
Practically all chemical elements can form salts.
All salts contain as a cation a metal (or ammonium).
The elements in group 17 are known by the name halogens. They are non-metal elements and are at times referred to as salts.
Salts are chemical compounds not elements.

Epsom salts is magnesium sulfate, MgSO4, which has three elements: magnesium, sulfur, and oxygen.
